Sowore doesn't have to win. He represents a generation taking matters into their own hands. He only needs to shake the tables and let the youth know that governance is not by arguing behind keybaords. Our democracy will be better for it.

Good luck with the enlightenment!

Even the security guards at Apo are in on the scope. All sorts of paroles at customers' expense.

Always insist on collecting the official Shoprite parking tags from them before you drive in for your shopping. They intentionally omit to give it out allowing you to go do your shopping only to raise issues and false accusations to came you on your way out.
Poverty is making people mad and desperate in Nigeria.

When it comes to a child's love for his parents, it can never be equal.
The bond a child and the mother share, start right from the womb, so when the love is 20% for the mum, for the dad it might just be 10%.
So deal with it...... It can't be equal.

Yes, i agree it is black mans mentality. But how do you explain's

Putin's shuffling of PM and presidency. !


Markel's has been in office since 2005

Trump is 71 years old.........

What's the fuss about Buhari!
The German constitution did not put term limits on the chancellor, so she can run as many times as she wants, because the electoral system is solid( not that sham we have in Africa)
If they are tired of her, they will vote her out.

Trump is 71 years old. But he has ran a successful business empire, and he is well educated to hold that post. Even tho the guy is erratic, if he decides to run for second term at 74, he will have to tell the American people what he has achieved to remain in power, and if he is not convincing enough, it's back to NY

Buhari has no WAEC certificate, his three years so far has been marked with failure upon failure, insecurity, economic woes (4m jobs were lost under his admin, according to NBS) etc.

We are not even sure of his age, as this man could be much more than the 75 he is claiming.
He is also sick (spent almost 4 months in a foreign country's hospital)
I can go on and on

You are right with the first point - someplace somehow, a cemetery was in place.

However, it's not a black man problem. Asians - Singaporeans, Japanese, Hong Kongers generally avoid flats that someone died in. Called haunted apartments. Developers even avoid number 4 or 5 when numbering buildings due the superstition with dead people.

@OP, My mom will say "as long as no be me kill am, I've no problem. Your choice to decide 'cos I can't really tell you what to do with your money.

No that's not the reason per say because oil drop to its lowest after this govt took over and the reserve never fall at the pace it was falling during the last govt. Even the lowest oil price of the last govt is still very much higher than current oil price....
undecided

How will I explain this thing to you now huh huh

Okay

Now, the last govt was defending the Naira at 199 to the dollar, that was what made the reserves slide the way it did,

This govt is defending the naira at 360, and is not even paying direct fuel subsidy



Let the govt defend the naira even at 250 to the dollar, and see what will happen to that reserves and the economy.


Long story short, this govt is a failure that needs to be dropped in the dustbin of Nigeria's history in 2019

So why was the reserve falling when oil price was very high during the last govt?
That's what the propaganda machinery will tell you

Oil prices began to fall at the tail end of the last govt, and the govt (CBN under sanusi, and emefiele continued) was defending the naira from that reserve

So it is expected that oil prices fall

it's that simple

Nigeria runs an artificial market and an import depended economy.
I have been fortunate to live in 2 developed countries and its only Nigeria foreign reserves is news to the common.

If Nigeria as a country increased its non oil exports, Foreign reserves would have nothing to do with the stability of the Naira.

The only reason why its matters in Nigeria is because the government spends money defending Naira.
Exactly!

Firstly, Nigeria is experiencing deflation, not hyperinflation. Inflation has been going down since last year from about 19%.
Secondly, all the borrowing of this government has been going to infrastructure while much of the foreign earnings from oil have been adding to our increasing foreign reserves.
Lastly, this is the highest capital investment I've witnessed in Nigeria since 1999. You should check out tons of projects being built by the ministries of Power, works and housing as well as Transport. Check @FMPWH on twitter for a start.
Did you say Nigeria is experiencing deflation huh huh

There is big deal here my brother. The same crude oil was above 100 dollar during the last administration but the foreign reserve never grew beyond 23billon dollar. Now the crude is 56/55 dollar per barrel and we are having 47billion dollar in the reserve. The conclusion is for you to know why stealing is not corruption under the last administration.
Stop lying

The foreign reserves was about 46b plus under GEJ at some point, but began to decline as the oil price was falling.

it fell to its lowest point under Buhari (between 23-27b not sure of the exact figure) And began to rise again.

there was NEVER a time in GEJ govt that the reserves was 23b

On seeing the topic, I hoped to read posts with statistical information about the unemployment situation in the south east. What did I see? Bigotry, tribalism, foolishness, lack of logical reasoning etc.

Truly, Nigerians deserve what ever they are facing.

@Post, The NBS released a data last two or three years ago which placed the south east as the region with the lowest poverty rate. This info by Zinox CEO is unsubstantiated unless we'll agree that unemployed people cannot be poor.
Nigerians indeed deserve the suffering.

Too STUPID to reason.

[ went to teach somewhere last month 9th of March, after the class the man gave me an Android phone which I did not have in my plan to buy. He said I like your teaching.

I quickly went to computer village to buy brand new charger when I plugged it to charge the phone the change burnt.

Second day, early in the morning I quickly went back there eally to buy charger head so I can use it with the other cable when I got to class I plugged it, it did not work

The same person that gave me the phone then gave me charger again.

The charger he gave me not powerful enough but I was managing it. I left it where I normal rest after the day work somebody (I am sure it would be an aboki) took it.

So I decided to buy another one but this time a stronger and powerful tokunbo charger. I got one instead for the charger to charge my phone it was discharging it.

Fake products imported to Nigeria every corner of the country yet you are crying they do not have work.

I went back to him he argued this that at the end he changed it to another one, and the one he gave me is not as powerful as the one I paid for, I am not even sure if that would not burn today.

Igbos import fake phones, fake accessories, fake drugs, fake engines, fake parts...they bring everything fake here.

In less than one month I have lost 1500 naira to their fake products no satisfaction yet you say they do not have job.

If they have job then Nigeria would be bygones. I don't want them to have job please if they have job everything would be fake.

Sometime you want to pretend as if is not happening but you can not on and on.


Nonsense
Blame igbos you hear.

rubbish

aren't there standards organisation of Nigeria to ensure that these fake products don't come in?
besides, will you church rats be able to afford the original of they bring it for you?
